Abstract (EN): This study presents variability assessment of real time measurements from in-vivo internal joint loads with instrumented implant during post-operative (PO) recovery process from total hip arthroplasty on daily living gait activities. A total of 112 trials walking supported by crutches in both hands, contralateral and ipsilateral sides, walking on treadmill at constant velocities, accelerating, decelerating and free walking, were assessed from 9 different patients ranging 0.3 to 76-month PO. Variability was assessed based on standard deviation of the vertical joint load normalized to each subject body weight with this metric adequacy to monitor PO recover.
